Chimney Requirements
 DO NOT CONNECT THIS UNIT TO A CHIMNEY FLUE SERVING ANOTHER APPLIANCE.
 DO NOT CONNECT TO OR USE IN CONJUNCTION WITH ANY AIR DISTRIBUTION DUCTWORK
UNLESS SPECIFICALLY APPROVED FOR SUCH INSTALLATIONS.
 IN CANADA: This appliance must be connected to a factory-built chimney conforming to CAN/ULC-
S629, Standard for 650ºC Factory-Built Chimneys.
 UL 103 HT Chimney must be used from the first ceiling or floor penetration to the chimney cap.
 Use 6" diameter type UL 103 HT chimney from one manufacturer (do not mix brands) or code
approved masonry chimney with a flue liner.
 Chimney must be fastened to each adjoining section.
 Follow the chimney manufacturer's clearances and requirements.
 Use the chimney manufacturer's fire stops, attic guards, roof supports, and flashings when passing
through a ceiling.
 No more than 180 o of elbows (two 90 o elbows, or two 45 o and one 90 o elbow, etc.) may be used for
the entire system (connector and chimney).
NOTE: Additional elbows may be allowed if draft is sufficient. Whenever elbows are used the draft is
adversely affected. Additional chimney height may be required to boost draft.
Figure 6
Drafting Performance
Draft is the force which moves air from the appliance up through the chimney. The amount of draft in your
chimney depends on the length of the chimney, local geography, nearby obstructions and other factors. Too
much draft may cause excessive temperatures in the appliance and may damage the heater. Inadequate draft
may cause backpuffing into the room and `plugging' of the chimney. Inadequate draft will cause the appliance to
leak smoke into the room through appliance and chimney connector joints. An uncontrollable burn or excessive
temperature indicates excessive draft.
